About this home

Some properties simply offer a home. Donney Brook Farm offers a way of life. Set on 22 beautiful acres in the rolling countryside of Strafford, this circa 1780 Colonial is for those dreaming of fresh eggs in the morning, gardens that stretch for seasons, evenings by the wood stove & a slower pace rooted in New England tradition. The historic farmhouse offers four bedrooms, two baths, wide plank floors, quintessential fireplace with mantel piece, a spacious country kitchen, formal dining room, first-floor laundry & a covered porch overlooking the land. While its historic character has been carefully preserved, many of the major infrastructure improvements have already been completed, including a new septic system, updated electrical service, triple-pane windows, chimney liners, wood stove, water filtration system, garage door, porch repairs & lead-safe certification for the interior. Step outside & imagine what's possible. Open fields are ready for gardens, livestock, horses, or simply room to roam. A small barn, chicken coop, wood shed, oversized detached garage & young orchard provide the foundation for the homestead you've always envisioned. Beyond the fields, winding woodland trails invite morning walks, afternoon adventures & cross-country skiing after a fresh snowfall. What truly sets this property apart is its 22-acre parcel, offering remarkable flexibility. Preserve the entire property as your own private country estate, family farm, or self-sufficient homestead, or explore the opportunity to subdivide the land (subject to local & state approvals), creating additional building lots while retaining a substantial homesite. Whether you're planning for future generations, investing in land, or looking to maximize its potential, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare. Whether your dream is raising animals, growing your own food, building a legacy, or simply escaping the noise, Donney Brook Farm offers the space, history & freedom to make it happen.
